maybe there is a conection to the moon, i must had over looked it since they dont really mention the conection, just what briggit said and i think when she is looKing at her calendar but thats about it. by "the original script" you mean the actual GS script or your own? and if you do mean GS scrip, where can i find it perhaps making jason look like he is turning faster is mearly the directors way of depicting how teenagers (male) go through a wild stage, revel stage if you may call it, where we do crazy and dumb things sometimes without any reason (most times that reason is a girl), and maybe he made ginger transform slower to show how girls are more mature than boys (most of the time) keep in mind that this is a feminist horror film, since you almost never see 2 strong girls as main characters and to that add female werewolfs. again just giving my opinion im galad you din't make the silver bullets that lethal xD don't want it to turn in to a repeat of most werewolf movies >.< faster decay is a good way to explain how no one ever found a werewolf body so props to that aswell. i will start reading the 4th chapter right now. Please see your mailbox for the link to the scripts. I will agree, GS has to be the only werewolf story that has no shots of the moon, full or otherwise. They wanted to downplay that connection. As for why Jason changed faster, what the director might be saying in the subtext about a "wild stage" boys go through, or whatever, has no connection to how it happens in the story. The point is, if Jason's werewolfism develops that quickly in that universe, then that's the "law" in that universe, even if it was just an expedient for what the director wanted to say.

thanks for that info, llooks like i havea bit of posting to do before i start to change gues june is one of the leads in your novel, very intresting that june can see ginger aswell (and not to forget boby too). i dont know if she has ESP or maybe another bictim of a werewolf attack >.< but i hope your novel explains it in a later chapter xD oh and thanks for the link to the GS script. i wont post it anywhere xD and i will read your novel first before clicking on the other link, dont really want to be distracted from this at the moment. about jason, i think they needed to have explained a bit more of his story perhaps in a sub plot within the original movie, to help us understand him and "the curse a bit more" since they only show him getting the injection and then stagering off. And since there is no real cure, then quite oviously his simptoms would had continued after the antidote wore off. but then again we cant blame them since they were preaty limited with their budget... so its up to our interpretation xD

(personaly i think that there is a good chance it is him) just woundering what peoples thoughts were on that. Which would have meant something from that director if he had made another sequel. I could see him leaving his options open for storytelling purposes (which is really what he was doing). I'm thinking that "other werewolves" aren't that common. In fact, they're rather rare. If that is so, than Brigitte has even more horrible luck than even GS implied. The problem with it not being Jason is then you have to ask, what happened to Jason? He had no access to monkshood, and if it wasn't a cure regardless, what becomes of him? If it's not taken on in sequels then it becomes an irritating loose end. This isn't so much a feminist film that the male characters are just dispensed? Especially when there's a good story to be told about them.

She has second sight. Problem is, she's also has psychotic hallucinations. Because she was having both, she really could not tell that one was separate from the other. Until her psychotic symptoms were treated and a few of her "hallucinations" did not go away, even if her delusions did.

exactly my point, i always find my self debating wheteher he was the one in unleashed, but i never convince myself since the director said it wasent.. so it will always be there on my mind >.< i would settle for even a short mention about him, maybe a simple "got runned over" or "shot" just to get the doubt off of my mind, and probably many other people who are asking the same thing would agree. on one hand i like the idea of more GS sequels and even preequals (not counting the begining and unleashed) but on the other hand, i stop to think that they probably wont cast the same main characters and it wouldnt really feel right to be honest. hey you should share some ideas on the "if a 4th movie was made". and why are we the most active people here? is everyone else like really shy or what?? i have to say i enjoy talking to people who clearly understand the films as i do, so come on people join us

I just made my 300th post! Actually, originally the producers shoe-horned ghost into the story because that's the character they wanted to continue it with. Really, the man who has the say over whether a sequel would be made has said he was in favor of the story continuing with her. In which case, I'd say, time to boycott. I have posted some ideas I had with how it could be continued with the current three movies. The problem is, what I would really be in favor of is a reboot replacing Unleashed. In fact, The Feral Bond is written with sequels in mind, even though I'm not going to be writing any.

I'm not even through with this one, yet. Fact is, I'm writing this novel as practice for turning into a professional writer. As such, it's a very elaborate amateur project, a dress-rehearsal, really, for my career. However, I'm writing it exactly the way I would write a book professionally: with an ending that's open to sequels. A writer these days should always do that. It is something they did not do for the original GS movie, and that's the problem when it comes to making sequels for it. For myself, I can't afford to keep putting this much work into something I'm definitely never going to be paid for. It will be open material for anyone else who would like to write a sequel to it. That is, unless the GS people quash the whole thing.

well this sotory sounds great to me so i think you are on the right path to having ur name known xD who knows maybe your books could end up like harry potter or the twilight series (i mean the succes level) they did leave the original open to sequels, by just leaving briggit infected and even jason dissapeared. yeah but i think fans would enjoy it if you published it. with a bit of good publicity you could even get new fans and next thing you know 1000000 new fans join this site and buy your books. i think u may notice i have quite an imagination but hey it could really happen.

Well, thank you for the compliment. I hope you feel that way by the time you reach the end. Fact is, the story gets very brutal, for every character involved, it is physically grueling and soul-twisting in a way that GS never was. I feel cruel writing it sometimes, but it's what the muse gives me to explore. If I published it? Grim, you don't understand: I don't own the rights, and legally speaking, I probably don't own the work! These are somebody else's characters, and the beginning refers too much to events in Unleashed to not be considered plagiarism. If I try to publish this, I will be sued, and I'd lose because I don't have the case. The best I could hope is that the producer of GS, or whoever owns it, notices the work, likes it, and is kind enough to throw a few bucks to me before HE has it published or made into a movie. I'd consider that to be a miracle. The only reason why I chose to write something like this is it was where the inspiration took me. I needed to prove to myself that I could write, and I was also curious to see if I was right about Unleashed, that there was much better story to be told with that plot concept. And you're wrong. Karen Walton did not write GS with the intention that there would be a sequel. The monkshood was supposed to be a cure. One could not continue GS, logically, because Ginger was dead. They had enough integrity to not bring her back to life, but you can't really have Ginger Snaps without Ginger. So, they managed to bring her back as a dream/ghost/hallucination. No, they weren't thinking of sequels. Both Walton and Fawcett were just beginning their careers. The way the production went, they just felt lucky to just get GS done, after four years. Sequels were an afterthought after the producer figured out that the movie had lasting popularity.

well i am back xD oh its "brutal"? well cant have a horror story with fluffy bunnies and pink flowers right so i will be ready for the ending. yeah i know you probably couldnt publish it without getting sued and them taiking a good chunk of money from you. you have a way of crushing my "another GS movie" dreams T.T hahaha man looks like you are better informed about the movies than me. i did not know that the monks hood was intended to be the actual cure and the story was going to end there. makes sence if you dont look at unleashed wich is the only movie wich says that the monks hood is not a cure just slows it down.

You have to see, director John Fawcett and writer Karen Walton were just happy to get GS done, after four years, and a grueling shooting schedule. Walton had something artistically in mind with GS, and both of them just wanted it to get their careers going. Nobody thought of making a sequel until four years later, when it proved to have a cult following. As I said, I think they had something going with Unleashed. Now, excuse me, I have to put the final touches on "The Feral Bond," Chapter 12.
